age nineteen (19), who is approved for Medicaid or the Children's Health
Insurance Program (CHIP), is eligible for twelve (12) months consecutively,

is applied when determining and re-determining eligibility for a child under
age nineteen (19) regardless of category of eligibility.

be referred to as a protected period because the child cannot lose eligibility
in the assigned category of eligibility unless one (1) of a limited number of
early termination reasons is met. [Refer to Miss. Admin. Code Part 101, Rule
11.2] .
D. The child's program cannot be changed from
Medicaid to CHIP or vice versa unless the head of household voluntarily
